[EFM] mini-cam UD

[tomg]

I just realized I left you guys hanging Thursday....sorry. The boards
are in and they are very nice indeed! Especially now that they can
actually be mounted. I picked 'em up Friday and have assembled
and tested them all at this point. I'm off to get some panel supplies
or I would spend more time talking about the boards.

We must have picked up a few new members. I found some mail in 
my box (lots more that one) wondering about parts for the camera
or what was a mini-cam...

CAM is an acronym for "Cheap Ass Module" mini-CAM is a smaller
that usual run of these boards. Sorry there is no video stuff  here, the
CAM  series is all synth related. A CAM pcboard is cheap (usually
under $15) because Paul has the high-end and other's take up all the
middle ground. 

CAM boards have not been a good place for total beginners but I
hope to fix that soon. At some point this week I will open a online
DIY-Store. That will feature CAM pcb/parts kits and DIY parts at 
fair prices. I am almost ready to run Frac-rack style panels for the
CAM series and will offer these in complete kits with boards and
parts. 

My wife has written a super data-base for me that will handle almost
everything related to EFM. It keeps stock, vendors, customers and
product information all in one place that is net/email happy.  It does
stuff like changing every parts list for every product that uses a 13600
if I change vendors. It will also recalculate the cost/price of each
kit while it's at it. I can pull up a list of everyone who bought a MadM
and send them all the same notice. This really kicks major a$$!

I would send you off to my page but you should wait until Monday
when pics of the new modules will be up.

A FEW NOTES ... until I can do real mail tomorrow....

I gave the bad boards back.....DAMM!
Thanks for the Effects replies....Lots of great Ideas!
The DIY-CD is on for next weekend.....Sorry for the delay....stuff happens!
